Last week’s WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge focused on a familiar phrase: Good Morning! So, I said to myself, why don’t you spend Saturday of your weekend in Idaho at the Farmers Market? So here I am at 10th & Grove saying, Good morning, Boise!
My favorite breakfast item came from two hard-working guys from The Creperie spreading delicate crepe batter on a hot griddle, filling it with anything from Nutella and strawberries (my choice) to asparagus and cheese, and then rolling the whole shebang in paper cones. Portable. Tasty. Warm. A treat on the street!
Fabulous French confections from the The Creperie
In the spirit of drinking local, I lined up for a cup of Bear Basin Roast from a cheerful, albeit chilly, vendor from Long Valley Coffee based in McCall. Mmmm. Rich, full-bodied, and my first cup of coffee with the word bear in the title!

Finally, I spied this happy, tattooed guy talking on his cellphone. When I asked if I could take a picture, he gave me a thumbs up. And then said, Have a good morning. He smiled. I smiled. And we bridged the generation gap if only for a few seconds. Made my day with a good morning start!
Nothing like a great smile to start your day!
P. S. Want to see more pics of the Boise Farmers Market? Come back for my next post. There’s everything from gourd vendors to a balloon man and who knows what else! You gotta get up on a Saturday and head to a farmers’ market near you. I can almost guarantee a Good Morning.
